Recognition
When people think of the term recognition, they hardly think of themselves and all the hard work they have been doing. At this time during the conference we want to give everyone a chance to recognize themselves and all the excellent work they have done. Join us to write emails to ourselves that will later be sent in the future, as a reminder that we are doing great.
